Inventiva announces pricing of upsized public offering of
COMMUNIQUE DE PRESSE
approximately $150M American Depositary Shares

Daix (France), New York City (New York, United States), November 13, 2025 – Inventiva (Euronext Paris and
Nasdaq: IVA) ("Inventiva" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the
development of oral therapies for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis ("MASH"),
today announced the pricing of its previously announced underwritten public offering, in the United States only,
of 38,961,038 new American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), each representing one new ordinary share of the
Company with a nominal value of €0.01, at an offering price of $3.85 per ADS (the "Offering"). Settlement and
delivery of the Offering is expected on November 17, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing
conditions.
About the Offering
The offering price per ADS of $3.85 (corresponding to €3.33 per ordinary share based on the exchange rate of
€1.00 = $1.1576 as published by the European Central Bank on November 12, 2025) is equal to the volume-
weighted average price of the share of the Company on the regulated market of Euronext in Paris ("Euronext")
for the last trading session preceding the pricing date of the Offering, less a discount of 0.89%. The offering price
was determined by the Chief Executive Officer in accordance with a sub-delegation of powers from the Company’s
Board of Directors (Conseil d'Administration) on October 27, 2025, pursuant to the 25th resolution of the
Company’s combined shareholders’ meeting held on May 22, 2025 (the "General Meeting").
Leerink Partners and Piper Sandler are acting as underwriters for the Offering. Namsen Capital is acting as Equity
Capital Markets Advisor to the Company in connection with the Offering.
The Offering is subject to an underwriting agreement that was entered into on November 12, 2025 in connection
with the determination of the offering price. The underwriting agreement does not constitute a performance
guarantee (garantie de bonne fin) within the meaning of Article L. 225-145 of the French Commercial Code (Code
de commerce).
The ADSs sold in the Offering by way of a capital increase without shareholders’ preferential subscription rights
will be issued in accordance with the 25th resolution of the General Meeting through a public offering (to the
exception of public offerings defined in Article L.411-2 1° of the French Monetary and Financial Code) in the United
States only.
In connection with the Offering, the Company has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to
5,844,155 additional ADSs, representing 15% of the ADSs sold in the Offering, on the same terms and conditions
as in the Offering, pursuant to the 30th resolution adopted at the General Meeting (the "Underwriters’ Option").
The Company will announce the exercise of the Underwriters’ Option, if any, and the number of ADSs to be issued
in connection therewith, if any, as soon as practicable thereafter in a subsequent press release.
Piper Sandler, acting as stabilization agent, may effect transactions with a view to supporting, stabilizing, or
maintaining the market price of such securities at a level higher than which might otherwise prevail in the
Company’s ADSs market. However, there is no assurance that the stabilization agent will take any stabilization
action and, if begun, such stabilization action may be ended at any time without prior notice. Any stabilization
action or over-allotment shall be carried out in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations and may be
undertaken on the Nasdaq Global Market.
The aggregate net proceeds from the Offering are expected to be approximately $140.1 million (€121.0 million),
after deducting underwriting fees, commissions and estimated expenses payable by the Company, assuming no
exercise of the Underwriters’ Option in connection with the Offering. If the Company issues additional ADSs
pursuant to the exercise in full of the Underwriters’ Option, the estimated net proceeds received by the Company
from the Offering would be expected to be approximately $161.2 million (€139.3 million), after deducting
underwriting fees, commissions and estimated expenses payable by the Company.
1
PRESS RELEASE



The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering (also in the event that the Underwriters' Option
is exercised in full), together with existing cash and cash equivalents, as follows:
- approximately 80% to fund the continuation of the Company’s NATiV3 Phase 3 clinical trial as well as the
continuation of the preparation and initiation of the outcome trial and for commercialization activities;
and
- approximately 20% to fund the working capital and for general corporate purposes of the Company.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of €97.6 1 million and short-term deposits 2
convertible in a period exceeding 3 months of €24.71 million. As of the date of this press release, based on the
Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits as of September 30, 2025, considering its current
cost structure and projected expenditure commitments, the Company estimates that, prior to the issuance of the
ADSs, its cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits would enable it to finance its operations as currently
planned until the end of the third quarter of 2026 3, which will not be sufficient to meet its obligations over the
next 12 months 4.
Based on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits as of September 30, 2025, following
the issuance of the ADSs, the Company expects to be able to finance its operations as currently planned:

- until the beginning of the first quarter of 2027 (based on net proceeds of €121.0 million ($140.1 million)
excluding the exercise of the Underwriters' Option) and until the end of the first quarter of 2027 (based
on net proceeds of €139.3 million ($161.2 million) if the Underwriters' Option is exercised in full),
assuming no exercise of the Tranche 3 warrants issued in the structured financing announced by the
Company on October 14, 2024; and
- until the beginning of the third quarter of 2027 (based on net proceeds of €121.0 million ($140.1 million)
excluding the exercise of the Underwriters' Option) and until the middle of the third quarter of 2027
(based on net proceeds of €139.3 million ($161.2 million) if the Underwriters' Option is exercised in full),
if the Tranche 3 warrants issued in the structured financing announced by the Company on October 14,
2024 are exercised in full for proceeds of up to €116.0 million.

These estimates are based on the Company’s current business plan and exclude any potential milestones payable
to or by the Company and any additional expenditures related to other product candidates or resulting from the
potential in licensing or acquisition of additional product candidates or technologies, or any associated
development the Company may pursue. The Company may have based these estimates on assumptions that are
incorrect, and the Company may end up using its resources sooner than anticipated. There can be no assurance
that the Offering will be completed or whether, and to which extent, the Tranche 3 warrants will be exercised, if
at all.

Samsara BioCapital L.P., which holds approximately 5.7% of the share capital and approximately 5.2% of the voting
rights of the Company as of the date hereof and not taking into account the Offering, subscribed to 5,194,805
ADSs for an amount of approximately $19,999,999.20. After the issue of the ADSs, Samsara BioCapital L.P. will
hold approximately 7.3% of the share capital of the Company and approximately 6.8% of the voting rights, on a
non-diluted basis immediately following the issuance of the New Shares.

In connection with the Offering, the Company’s board members and executive officers are subject to a contractual
lock-up for a period of 90 days after the date of the final prospectus supplement, subject to customary exceptions.

1
The above Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits as of September 30, 2025 are based on unaudited information.
2
Short-term deposits were included in the category "other current assets” in the IFRS consolidated statement of financial position.
3
This estimate is based on the Company’s current business plan and excludes any potential milestones payable to or by the Company, any potential further
proceeds from the structured financing of up to €348 million announced on October 14, 2024, any potential proceeds from the Offering, and any additional
expenditures related to other product candidates or resulting from the potential in licensing or acquisition of additional product candidates or technologies,
or any associated development the Company may pursue. The Company may have based this estimate on assumptions that are incorrect, and the Company
may end up using its resources sooner than anticipated.
4
These events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern and, therefore, the Company may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

PRESS RELEASE



The Company has also agreed to be bound by a contractual lock-up for a period of 90 days after the date of the
final prospectus supplement, subject to customary exceptions.

For illustration purposes, the impact of the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs on the ownership
of a shareholder holding 1% of the Company’s share capital prior to the Offering and not subscribing to it, is as
follows (calculation made on the basis of the Company's shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2025):
Ownership interest (in %) Share of equity per share (in euros)

On a non-diluted On a diluted On a non- On a diluted
basis basis(1) diluted basis basis(1)

Prior to the Offering 1% 0.43 % - €0.30 €0.26
Following the issue of the new shares underlying the ADSs 0.78 % 0.38 % - €0.24 €0.23
Following the issue of the new shares underlying the ADSs
0.77 % 0.38 % - €0.23 €0.23
(if the Underwriters' Option is exercised in full)

(1) The calculations are based on the assumption of the exercise of all share subscription warrants (BSA) and warrants for the subscription of business
founders’shares (BSPCE) will be exercised and that all allocated free shares (actions gratuites) and stock-options (options d’achat d’actions) will vest, as of
the date of this document, giving access to a maximum of 196,187,715 shares.
